About “Come On Eileen”
- Why does the accompaniment for "Come On Eileen" show falling notes?

- Can I sing over "Come On Eileen" with this accompaniment?
- Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.

- Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Come On Eileen", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.

- Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.
